Privacy Policy

1. Our Privacy Philosophy

Starfishis Social Casino is built with privacy as a priority. We don't require accounts, we don't process payments, and we don't track your behavior across the web. Our goal is simple: provide fun, free social casino games with minimal data collection.

Key Privacy Principles:

• We collect only essential data needed for Platform functionality.
• We don't sell, rent, or share your personal information with third parties for marketing.
• We don't use invasive tracking technologies.
• We don't require registration or personal identification to play games.

2. Information We Collect

2.1 Age Verification Data

When you first visit Starfishis Social Casino, we present an age verification prompt. Your confirmation that you are 18 years or older is stored locally in your browser using localStorage. This data:

• Never leaves your device.
• Is not transmitted to our servers.
• Can be cleared by clearing your browser's local storage.
• Only confirms you've acknowledged the age requirement.

2.2 Game Progress and Preferences

Some game state information may be stored locally in your browser to enhance your experience:

• Virtual credit balances (these have no real value).
• Game progress or state to allow you to continue where you left off.
• Basic preferences like sound settings.

This information is stored locally and is not sent to external servers.

2.3 Technical Information

Like most websites, we may automatically collect certain technical information when you visit Starfishis Social Casino:

• Browser type and version.
• Device type (mobile, tablet, desktop).
• Operating system.
• Screen resolution for optimal game display.
• Referring website (if you clicked a link to reach us).

This technical data helps us optimize the Platform for different devices and browsers but is not used to identify you personally.

3. How We Use Information

The limited information we collect is used solely to:

• Ensure Age Compliance: Verify that users acknowledge they meet the 18+ age requirement.
• Improve User Experience: Optimize games and Platform performance for your device and browser.
• Maintain Platform Functionality: Ensure games load properly and function as intended.
• Troubleshoot Issues: Identify and fix technical problems that may arise.

We do not use collected information for advertising, profiling, or selling to third parties.

4. Cookies and Local Storage

Starfishis Social Casino uses browser storage technologies for essential functionality:

Local Storage

We use localStorage to save:

• Your age verification confirmation.
• Game state and virtual credit balances.
• User preferences (e.g., sound on/off).

You can clear this data at any time through your browser settings. Clearing local storage will reset your age verification and game progress.

Cookies

We do not use traditional tracking cookies. Any cookies present are essential for basic website functionality only.

5. Third-Party Services

Starfishis Social Casino uses minimal third-party services:

Google Fonts

We use Google Fonts to provide attractive typography on our Platform. When you visit our site, your browser may request font files from Google's servers. This interaction is governed by Google's privacy policy. Google Fonts does not set cookies or track users in a personally identifiable way.

No Analytics or Advertising

We do not use third-party analytics services (like Google Analytics) or advertising networks. Your browsing on Starfishis Social Casino is not tracked or monitored for marketing purposes.

6. Data Security

While we collect minimal data, we take reasonable measures to protect information from unauthorized access or disclosure:

• Most data is stored locally on your device, not on our servers.
• We use standard security practices for website hosting.
• Since no financial or highly sensitive personal data is collected, the risk of data breaches is minimal.

However, no internet transmission is completely secure. By using Starfishis Social Casino, you acknowledge that you understand this inherent risk.

7. Children's Privacy

Starfishis Social Casino is not intended for individuals under 18 years of age. We do not knowingly collect information from anyone under 18. If we become aware that someone under 18 has accessed the Platform, we will take appropriate steps to address the situation.

Parents and guardians should monitor their children's internet usage to ensure compliance with age restrictions.

8. Your Privacy Rights

Because we collect minimal data and most of it is stored locally on your device, you have significant control:

• Access and Control: You can view and delete locally stored data through your browser settings.
• Opt-Out: You can stop using the Platform at any time.
• Data Deletion: Clearing your browser's local storage removes all Starfishis data from your device.

If you have privacy concerns or questions, please refer to our contact information on the main website.

9. No Real Money, No Financial Data

It's important to emphasize that Starfishis Social Casino does not involve real money gambling. As such:

• We never collect payment information (no credit cards, bank accounts, etc.).
• We do not process financial transactions of any kind.
• Virtual credits in games have no monetary value and cannot be cashed out.
• There is no risk of financial data exposure because we don't collect it.

10. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or legal requirements. When we make changes:

• We will update the "Last Updated" date at the top of this page.
• Significant changes may be communicated through a notice on the Platform.
• Continued use of Starfishis Social Casino after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated Privacy Policy.

11. International Users

Starfishis Social Casino is accessible from various locations worldwide. By using the Platform, you consent to the storage and processing of data as described in this Privacy Policy, regardless of your location.

If you are accessing Starfishis from outside your home country, please be aware that information may be transferred across borders. We comply with applicable data protection laws to the extent reasonably possible.
